Overview

• Guided aerial bombs struck the Ostrivskyi bridge on August 2, damaging the only road link to Korabel and leaving it barely operable under continuous fire.
• Subsequent drone and artillery barrages have cut gas, electricity and water to the district, with water now delivered intermittently by generators as shortages grow.
• More than 1,300 residents have fled Korabel carrying only essential belongings, as evacuation convoys traverse routes patrolled by Russian drones.
• Kherson’s main hospital is treating dozens of patients wounded by recent shelling and drone strikes, highlighting a deepening humanitarian emergency.
• Ukrainian commanders report no credible signs of an imminent Russian amphibious landing and are reinforcing anti-landing defenses along the Dnipro River.
